WATER JACKET CHAMBERS

The Water Jacket Incubator provides superior incubation stability above and below room temperature. Water is pumped from a water bath into the base plate and into the lid, which are both Water Jackets.Temperature is measured inside a reference Petri-dish and is controlled by circulating water from a water bath into the Water Jacket Chamber. The Temperature Controller reads the temperature in the reference well and updates the set point temperature of the water bath, ensuring a specimen temperature stability of ± 0.1°C.

TEMPERATURE CONTROLLERS

The Water Jacket Incubator provides superior incubation stability above and below room temperature by circulating water inside the base and lid of the water jacket chamber. Feedback is provided by sample temperature or by chamber temperature. Selection is done via OKO-TOUCH.

Okolab offers two Temperature controllers, according to the temperature range of interest.

CO2 - O2 CONTROLLERS

The Bold Line Gas Controllers connect to the Temperature Controller via a cable-less connector and are operated through the same touch screen interface OKO-TOUCH.

CO2 and or O2 accuracy is ±0.1% with adjustable total output flow rate.

A humidity module based on a bubbling column is typically used with a Heating and Cooling System. When Humidity control with feedback is required, the Active Humidity Controller can be connected to the Bold Line Gas Controller.

HUMIDITY MODULE

The Heating and Cooling Stage Top Incubator employes a bubbling column to humidify the gas prior to the inlet inlet in the stage top chamber.

The bubbling column is immersed in the water bath and a pre-heating coil ensures thermal equilibrium between the flowing gas and the water bath.

The tube connecting the bubbling column to the stage top chamber is isolated to prevent water condensation.

Features

Gas is humidified by means of a bubbling column immersed in the water bath and a pre-heating coil

Input (dry gas) is connected to the gas controller

Output (humid gas) is connected to the gas chamber

The system comprises:

Glass Bubbling Column (spare part code H101-BC)

Pre-heating coil

ACTIVE HUMIDITY CONTROLLER

Active Humidity Controller controls the Relative Humidity inside the chamber in the range 50-95% with a resolution of 1%.

Features

Connects to any Bold Line Gas controller

Controlled via OKO-TOUCH

Humidity sensor resolution 1%

A heated tube connects the Active Humidity Controller to the Chamber

Stand alone version (HM-ACTIVE-STANDALONE) is available to run the humidifier independently of the gas controller.

The dry gas is humidified by flowing over warm water. The Humidity sensor regulates water temperature in order to achieve the desired relative humidity in the chamber.

To prevent water condensation, the tube connecting the humidity controller to the chamber is heated.

Evaporation rate as a function of relative humidity inside the chamber

OKO-TOUCH

OKO-TOUCH is an intuitive and user-friendly touch screen interface. It connects to any one of the Bold Line Controllers, detects all equipment in the system and displays all functions supported by the equipment detected.

OKO-TOUCH features on-board memory for data logging and mini-USB port for data download.
